Automatically Detect Baud Rate Of Serial Port?
Jan 28, 2012
We have a weigh bridge connected to PC via serial port.A VB code fetches the data from serial port and puts it in clipboard,which can be used by other applications like SAP.
We have several different makes of weigh bridge at different locations, each with separate settings(baud rate,data bit,parity), hence we need to change the VB code each time a new make weigh bridge is installed.
can we write a generic VB code which can automatically detect all these settings and capture the weight?

I have a stand alone VB.Net 2005 application that uses a serial port that generally stays open while the application runs on a Windows XP system. In trying to bullet-proof the UI, I ran into a problem when the USB to Serial Converter normally used to provide the serial port is disconnected while the serial port is open. In trying to handle the resulting error when accessing the port, I find I cannot close the port.
When trying to do so, the error message says something like "unable to close the port. You may not have sufficient permissions." Reconnecting the USB/Serial Converter does not reactivate the port.

Im having problem with the Serial Port. When i run my program, "Access to the port 'COM1' is denied". What does that mean? Im not sure whats happening because theres no error in my code. Someone suggest me to use 'COM2'. Which is also the same result. I have a microcontroller, programmed and run it. And i need to capture the data onto my vb, which is on a multiline textbox. How to i do that?Just to double check my code?

How can I speed up a process? I see I should use timegettime, gettickcount, and queryperformance counter, but I have no clue where to start.
I guess you can call it Frame Rate or Refresh Rate of a process?

I need to automate the installation of some Antivirus applications. I can easily do it by utilizing the Process Class, but I also needed to know if there was a way to automatically input the serial key.
I thought I remember someone mentioning a property or something that could be used for that, but I can't remember what it was or who said it.

For my application a need to set a breakstate on/off of 25ms.In Xp this runs fine when I set breakstate=true and wait for 25ms and then breakstate= false and wait 25ms.In CE6.0 when I set breakstate = true, it only throws a puls.It is even not possible to keep breakstate on.
how to solve this or is there an alternative to simulate a breakstate?

For many years, I have sent data between 2 computers using serial ports."Here is the data", "Thank you for that data!" type stuff.Where do I get more information for doing the same thing with 2 computers that are networked together? Assume a local ethernet connection.I have experimented with serial-ethernet modems and that works well but I don't want any more hardware.Is there a good thread here I should read?I want 2 VB programs running and I want to exchange data periodically.

I am developing a UI for an embedded device that I have designed and built. The device uses an FT232 chip which, when connected via USB is automatically assigned one of the COM ports. I was wondering if there is a way to set up a loop which would automatically detect which COM port the device has been assigned. I could then add some handshaking to verify that the port is correct.
